So poll will wait until the fence is set before the sync_file is signaled, but here we return NULL. At the moment this is interpretted by the callers as an error (since we can't distinguish between the lookup error and the empty sync_file). However, if it is empty we also want to delay the dependent execution until the fence is set to match the poll semantics. -Chris -- Chris Wilson, Intel Open Source Technology Centre _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
